When I use FireFox to work with my website I have links added advertising sites on most of my pages. I didn't authorize. How do I get rid of this problem.
When I use the FireFox Browser to work with my website I see outgoing links attached to my words on almost every page of my website. The links are going to promotional sites, blogs, etc... This does not happen when I use Internet Explorer. When I ask other people to pull up my site using FireFox or IE they do not see the links I am seeing. I did not authorize these links. I was told it was a problem with my FireFox toolbar. I have uninstalled and reinstalled FireFox. The problem still exist. How can I fix this problem?

Sounds like a sketchy addon. Type about:addons in the address bar and disable any extensions or plugins that you don't recognize. You will have to restart the browser to fully disable them.
I am not sure I understand. Just type the word Addons in the address bar? Where would I see the extensions or plug-ins? Thanks for your time and patience.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
